Popis: Wooden construction has great development potential in Europe and in the world. It is based on a renewable and inexhaustible source of raw material, which is wood. However, this potential is still not fully exploited, while broader use of wood in construction could bring significant benefits, not only in environmental but also in social and economic terms. Innovative technologies that allow rapid construction of energy-efficient wooden buildings, including multi-storey, are a great opportunity for wooden construction development. Therefore, it is important to foster building with wood, indicate the opportunities it brings and its benefits, but also take into account the barriers limiting its development. The aim of the report was to prepare guidelines for fostering wooden building and to indicate conditions of its development. The report covered: ��� indication of major development opportunities for wooden construction in Europe and in the world, taking into account technical, political, economic and societal aspects, ��� identification of significant barriers inhibiting the development of the use of wood in construction, including its weaknesses and threats in the technical, political, economic and societal context, ��� assessment of the potential of using recycled wood in the construction sector, including estimating the potential supply of post-consumer wood waste and wood by-products, ��� gathering examples of best practices in wood recycling in different countries based on case studies, ��� basic characteristics of the regulatory framework and operational environment for recycled wooden products in chosen countries of the project partners, ��� identification of key economic, social, environmental and technical benefits of using wood and wood products in construction.
BASAJAUN is a European innovation action about sustainable building with wood. The main objective is to demonstrate how wood construction chains can be optimized to foster both rural development and urban transformation whilst being connected with sustainable forest management in Europe. The consortium comprises 29 partners from 12 countries including 8 leading research and technology organizations, 3 universities, 15 companies and 4 other public and sectoral organizations. The project is coordinated by the Tecnalia Research and Innovation Foundation in Spain and has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement no. 862942.
